When force of circumstance upsets your equanimity, lose no time in recovering your self-control, and do not remain out of tune longer than you can help. Habitual recurrence to the harmony will increase your mastery of it. (6:11)

When awareness is brought to an emotion, power is brought to your life.
The state of ill health is a moment to
moment happening. Healing is moment
to moment balance, bringing awareness
to our thoughts, feelings and emotions and
how we respond.
Every one of us, consciously or unconsciously, affects the
objects and people around us—including ourselves—on a continual basis. Think
about the expression “laughter is contagious.” It is! How do you feel when you
are around happy, laughing people? Usually, you can’t help but feel good
yourself. All emotions are energy and energy passes from one body to another;
from one object to another; matter to matter. Emotions are contagious!
You clear your house of negative energies and replace them
with positive ones. Think about those frozen water crystals; Emoto was able to
change their structure by projecting his thoughts on them! You have learned how
to consciously do the same thing with the objects that surround you in your
life.

Awake ~ Aware With All Keen Emotions
If I feel depressed I will sing.
If I feel sad I will laugh.
If I feel ill I will double my labor.
If I feel fear I will plunge ahead.
If I feel inferior I will wear new garments.
If I feel uncertain I will raise my voice.
If I feel poverty I will think of wealth to come.
If I feel incompetent I will think of past success.
If I feel insignificant I will remember my goals.
Today I will be the master of my emotions.
RESPECT IS EARNED EVEN WHEN YOU ARE BEHIND CLOSE DOORS
A background of wrath, which can be stirred up the murderous internal pitch, does lie in every man.
"Empathy is the most radical of human emotions."
Depression is a house you built long ago, so you could live with your rage.
Emotions are wild horses. It is not explanations that carry us forward, but our will to go on.
Love is not a mystical or idealized relation, it is an utterly "natural" expression of self-harmonic and self-mastering individuals, but for just that reason it is something tragically, utterly, beyond being "naturally possible" for the vast majority of humans whose characters are bereft of such values and imperatives and self-subtilizing culture. In most cases, as Nietzsche observed, all that happens between humans is that two animals find one another, and that can never be a stabilizable relation because feelings and desires (appetites) are of all experiences the most mercurial and fluctuating. Nothing like a human life can be erected on such a foundation of constantly eroding sand; emotions, needs, feelings, will be there in every kind or form of life, but they will not have at all the same kinds of authority, power, significance, or structured role to play.
"The way out is the way in."
I am sure I have heard this several times from places I can't recall, but it's not already in the Z Quotes database, so I add this profound insight from the fields of psychological healing and spiritual evolution. It sure has helped me.
Never let the sun go down upon your anger.
Emotions of the sould should be watched, regulary examined, and kept well balanced.
There can be no transforming of darkness into light and of apathy into movement without emotion.
In the midst of despair or pain, you may be convinced that no one has ever felt this way before. Yet there is no pain you can experience that has not been experienced before by another in a different time or place. our emotional world is universal.
What good are thoughts and emotions—in fact all of our experiences—if not to increase our realization?
The essence of practice is always the same: instead of falling prey to a chain reaction of revenge or self-hatred, we gradually learn to catch the emotional reaction and drop the story lines.
Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion; it is not the expression of personality, but an escape from personality. But, of course, only those who have personality and emotions know what it means to want to escape from these things.
As long as the ego runs your life, most of your thoughts, emotions, and actions arise from desire and fear. In relationships you then either want or fear something from the other person.
What you want from them may be pleasure or material gain, recognition, praise or attention, or a strengthening of your sense of self through comparison and through establishing that you are, have, or know more than they. What you fear is that the opposite may be the case, and they may diminish your sense of self in some way.
When you make the present moment the focal point of your attention — instead of using it as a means to an end — you go beyond the ego and beyond the unconscious compulsion to use people as a means to an end, the end being self-enhancement at the cost of others. When you give your fullest attention to whoever you are interacting with, you take past and future out of the relationship, except for practical matters. When you are fully present with everyone you meet, you relinquish the conceptual identity you made for them — your interpretation of who they are and what they did in the past — and are able to interact without the egoic movements of desire and fear. Attention, which is alert stillness, is the key.
How wonderful to go beyond wanting and fearing in your relationships. Love does not want or fear anything.
It is important to recognize the power of our emotions--and to take responsibility for them by creating a light and positive atmosphere around ourselves. This attitude of joy that we create helps alleviate states of hopelessness, loneliness, and despair. Our relationships with others thus naturally improve, and little by little the whole of society becomes more positive and balanced.
All emotions are pure which gather you and lift you up; that emotion is impure which seizes only one side of your
being and so distorts you.
"Emotions are the untapped resource of every organization."
"People follow emotions, not force."
"Harmonious Emotional Engagement is the tool that allows leaders to take
full advantage of these three simple but profound principles:
People respond emotionally to every situation that occurs in an organization.
People's negative emotions reduce their performance in an organization.
People's positive emotions enhance their performance in an organization."
